Only $10.00 will purchase a thermal top and bottom. $25.00 will fully outfit a person in thermal top, bottom, hat, gloves, socks, and a rain poncho. Please continue to give generously.

On New Year’s Day, House the Homeless, with 40 volunteers from the community and from the First Baptist Church, provided a city wideThermal Underwear Party for homeless citizens from Austin. Rockin’ Gospel Project provided the music and entertainment while a ham lunch was serviced and participants received thermal tops and bottoms, socks, gloves, hats, and ponchos to help them survive this winter’s weather.
Thank you to Trianon Coffee House, Central Market, Sweetish Hill Bakery, Whole Foods, Texas honey Ham, and JoAnn Koepke and Family for providing many donations to make the holiday lunch a success.
Thank you and Happy New Year to all!
